                   Welcome to Michigan Peace Team!

MICHIGAN PEACE TEAM (MPT) empowers people to engage in active nonviolent peacemaking.

MPT was started in 1993, in response to the growing need for civilian peace-makers both in the U.S. and abroad.

We offer nonviolence training workshops and provide opportunities to join peace teams.

We seek a just world grounded in nonviolence and respect for the sacred interconnectedness of all life.

 UPDATED: MPT  Team prepares to

leave for Juarez, Mexico.

Did you know....
  • That MPT operates on a shoe-string budget?
  • That every piece of furniture we have has been donated?
  • That every staff person and member of our Core community (Board of Directors) believes so much in the work that we're doing that we all financially contribute to MPT too?
  • That we don't have big business and corporate sponsors: without your individual donations, we would have to shut our doors?
Please support the work of Michigan Peace Team.  Our ability to train & place teams, offer educational programs, and continue our international internship program depends on people like you  - - people who care.  To make a tax-deductible donation, visit Network for Good.  Thank you!
